Notes on this text (1)
- Ezra and Nehemiah form one book (2 Esdras) in this edition; the reader shows them as Ezra 1–10 and Nehemiah 1–13.
1 Καὶ οὗτοι οἱ κατακληρονομήσαντες υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ ἐν τῇ γῇ Χαναὰν, οἷς κατεκληρονόμησαν αὐτοῖς Ἐλεάζαρ ὁ ἱερεὺς, καὶ Ἰησοῦς ὁ τοῦ Ναυῆ, καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντες πατριῶν φυλῶν τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ.
1 These are the inheritances which the children of Israel took in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar the priest, Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers’ houses of the tribes of the children of Israel, distributed to them,
2 Κατὰ κλήρους ἐκληρονόμησαν, ὃν τρόπον ἐνετείλατο Κύριος ἐν χειρὶ Ἰησοῦ ταῖς ἐννέα φυλαῖς, καὶ τῷ ἡμίσει φυλῆς
2 by the lot of their inheritance, as Yahweh commanded by Moses, for the nine tribes, and for the half-tribe.
3 ἀπὸ τοῦ πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου. Καὶ τοῖς Λευίταις οὐκ ἔδωκε κλῆρον ἐν αὐτοῖς,
3 For Moses had given the inheritance of the two tribes and the half-tribe beyond the Jordan; but to the Levites he gave no inheritance among them.
4 ὅτι ἦσαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰωσὴφ δύο φυλαὶ Μανασσὴ καὶ Ἐφραΐμ· καὶ οὐκ ἐδόθη μερὶς ἐν τῇ γῇ τοῖς Λευίταις, ἀλλʼ ἤ πόλεις κατοικεῖν, καὶ τὰ ἀφωρισμένα αὐτῶν τοῖς κτήνεσι, καὶ τὰ κτήνη αὐτῶν.
4 For the children of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim. They gave no portion to the Levites in the land, except cities to dwell in, with their pasture lands for their livestock and for their property.
5 Ὃν τρόπον ἐνετείλατο Κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ, οὕτως ἐποίησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἐμέρισαν τὴν γῆν.
5 The children of Israel did as Yahweh commanded Moses, and they divided the land.
6 Καὶ προσήλθοσαν οἱ υἱοῖ Ἰούδα πρὸς Ἰησοῦν ἐν Γαλγάλ· καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτὸν Χάλεβ ὁ τοῦ Ἰεφονὴ ὁ Κενεζαῖος, σὺ ἐπίστῃ τὸ ῥῆμα, ὃ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν ἄνθρωπον τοῦ Θεοῦ περὶ ἐμοῦ καὶ σοῦ ἐν Κάδης Βαρνῆ.
6 Then the children of Judah came near to Joshua in Gilgal. Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite said to him, “You know the thing that Yahweh spoke to Moses the man of God concerning me and concerning you in Kadesh Barnea.
7 Τεσσαράκοντα γὰρ ἐτῶν ἤμην ὅτε ἀπέστειλέ με Μωυσῆς ὁ παῖς τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐκ Κάδης Βαρνῆ κατασκοπεῦσαι τὴν γῆν· καὶ ἀπεκρίθην αὐτῷ λόγον κατὰ τὸν νοῦν αὐτοῦ.
7 I was forty years old when Moses the servant of Yahweh sent me from Kadesh Barnea to spy out the land. I brought him word again as it was in my heart.
8 Οἱ ἀδελφοί μου οἱ ἀναβάντες μετʼ ἐμοῦ μετέστησαν τὴν καρδίαν τοῦ λαοῦ, ἐγὼ δὲ προσετέθην ἐπακολουθῆσαι Κυρίῳ τῷ Θεῷ μου.
8 Nevertheless, my brothers who went up with me made the heart of the people melt; but I wholly followed Yahweh my God.
9 Καὶ ὤμοσε Μωυσῆς ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ, λέγων, ἡ γῆ ἐφʼ ἣν ἐπέβης, σοὶ ἔσται ἐν κλήρῳ καὶ τοῖς τέκνοις σου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, ὅτι προσετέθης ἐπακολουθῆσαι ὀπίσω Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν.
9 Moses swore on that day, saying, ‘Surely the land where you walked shall be an inheritance to you and to your children forever, because you have wholly followed Yahweh my God.’
10 Καὶ νῦν διέθρεψέ με Κύριος ὃν τρόπον εἶπε· τοῦτο τεσσαρακοστὸν καὶ πέμπτον ἔτος, ἀφʼ οὗ ἐλάλησε Κύριος τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο πρὸς Μωυσῆν· καὶ ἐπορεύθη Ἰσραὴλ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ· καὶ νῦν ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ σήμερον ὀγδοήκοντα καὶ πέντε ἐτῶν·
10 “Now, behold, Yahweh has kept me alive, as he spoke, these forty-five years, from the time that Yahweh spoke this word to Moses, while Israel walked in the wilderness. Now, behold, I am eighty-five years old, today.
11 Ἔτι εἰμὶ σήμερον ἰσχύων, ὡσεὶ ὅτε ἀπέστειλέ με Μωυσῆς, ὡσαύτως ἰσχύω νῦν ἐζελθεῖν καὶ εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὸν πόλεμον.
11 As yet I am as strong today as I was in the day that Moses sent me. As my strength was then, even so is my strength now for war, to go out and to come in.
12 Καὶ νῦν αἰτοῦμαί σε τὸ ὄρος τοῦτο, καθὰ εἰπε Κύριος τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, ὅτι σὺ ἀκήκοας τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ· νῦν δὲ οἱ Ἐνακὶμ ἐκεῖ εἰσι, πόλεις ὀχυραὶ καὶ μεγάλαι· ἐὰν οὖν Κύριος μετʼ ἐμοῦ ᾖ, ἐξολοθρεύσω αὐτοὺς, ὃν τρόπον εἶπέ μοι Κύριος.
12 Now therefore give me this hill country, of which Yahweh spoke in that day; for you heard in that day how the Anakim were there, and great and fortified cities. It may be that Yahweh will be with me, and I shall drive them out, as Yahweh said.”
13 Καὶ εὐλόγησεν αὐτὸν Ἰησοῦς, καὶ ἔδωκε Χεβρὼν τῷ Χάλεβ υἱῷ Ἰεφονῆ υἱῷ Κενὲζ ἐν κλήρῳ.
13 Joshua blessed him; and he gave Hebron to Caleb the son of Jephunneh for an inheritance.
14 Διὰ τοῦτο ἐγενήθη ἡ Χεβρὼν τῷ Χάλεβ τῷ τοῦ Ἰεφονῆ τοῦ Κενεζαίου ἐν κλήρῳ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης, διὰ τὸ αὐτὸν ἐπακολουθῆσαι τῷ προστάγματι Κυρίου Θεοῦ Ἰσραήλ.
14 Therefore Hebron became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite to this day, because he followed Yahweh, the God of Israel wholeheartedly.
15 Τὸ δὲ ὄνομα τῆς Χεβρὼν ἦν τὸ πρότερον πόλις Ἀργὸβ, μητρόπολις τῶν Ἐνακὶμ αὕτη· καὶ ἡ γῆ ἐκόπασε τοῦ πολέμου.
15 Now the name of Hebron before was Kiriath Arba, after the greatest man among the Anakim. Then the land had rest from war.
